I received this product for free from Moms Meet (momsmeet.com), May Media Group LLC, who received it directly from the manufacturer. As a Moms Meet blogger, I agree to use this product and post my honest opinion on my blog. The opinions posted are my own.
Peanut Butter Turtle Cookies

If I asked you what are some typical kid foods you'd probably say things like hot dogs, mac and cheese, and PB & J sandwiches. Peanut butter and jelly sandwiches are still a favorite of mine, even after all these years. If I am craving a sweet but am trying to cut back on things like ice cream peanut butter and jelly sandwiches are one of my go tos. It fills that craving in a much healthier way, I think.

When I was a kid peanut butter was the only nut butter you consistently heard about. If others, like cashew or almond butter, existed they weren't advertised at all. I know I never heard about them but these days that's changed.

Today people are more health conscious which means they look for organic and non-GMO foods. This is where companies like Once Again shine. Once Again is healthy food pioneer that supports small organic farms. Since 1976, they have been concerned about protecting the environment and helping those in need, all while providing millions of pounds of nut and seed butters to the public.

Many of their products are also vegan, kosher, paleo, and gluten-free allowing people even with special diets to enjoy them as well.

once again butters

Thanks to Moms Meet and Once Again I was lucky enough to try some of their amazing nut and seed butters. Being a peanut butter lover, that was by far my favorite of the bunch. Maybe it's because Once Again uses organic peanuts that are dry roasted and milled, but it was extra delicious. I just knew this was the one I was going to have to create a recipe for.

My kids and I did do a taste test with all of the butters and we ranked them as follows:

  1. Once Again Peanut Butter
  2. Once Again Almond Butter
  3. Once Again Sunflower Seed Butter
  4. Once Again Cashew Butter

We just weren't a fan of the cashew butter at all. It's definitely something we would not eat plain, however, I could totally see it incorporated into a Chinese dish in some sort of sauce. I love that Once Again offers a ton of recipes that you can use their nut butters in if you are at loss as to what to make with them.

There's so much you can make besides just desserts, however, I totally HAD to make a dessert with their amazing peanut butter. It was a must!

cookies

I decided to make Peanut Butter Turtle Cookies. Turtles are typically candies featuring chocolate, pecans, and caramel. A totally heavenly combination! The flavors just go perfectly together but I was thinking another flavor that's amazing is peanut butter. It would totally pair flavor wise with these other guys. Boy, was I right!
